    Oh! I see! I apologize again for MY confusion, then! System music player no longer finds my PC? :)

    If you haven't already, check out our
    Zune Support
    page for steps on how to make sure everything is set for that to stream properly. The last thing I can think of is reinstalling your OS on your PC. I know it's not ideal, but reinstalling it will get us back to a point where it will have nothing
    interfering on your computer's side that may be causing this issue.

    And if that doesn't work, your console may need to be repaired. The network card may be on its way out. However, without full failure, I'm not sure it can be repaired yet.

    Please do give the above a try and let me know how it goes. I understand if you do not want to reinstall the OS on your PC, so please do not feel that this is something I am requiring you to do. However, outside of everything else, there are no further troubleshooting
    steps for your particular situation.

    Still nothing, what a shame. But oh well! Thank you so much for your time and patience. I'll wait for Windows 10 and hopefully that'll fix it. System music player no longer finds my PC? :)

    I do apologize for any confusion! Windows Media Player is on your PC, not on your Xbox. The app on your console that you should be using is System Music Player if you are not using the Media Center Extender.

    Hopefully that helps clear up my instructions above!

    Sorry for the late reply!! I was able to find my Windows media player on my Xbox; BUT it wouldn't load any artists or anything. I've never used WMP on my Xbox, just Zune. Which still won't be found. :/

    I did all of the above, and Quality Windows Audio Video Experience wasn't running, so I started it. But still nothing. Thank you again so much. Worse comes to worst; I'll plug in my Zune to my Xbox...But for some reason it won't load all my content!

    Really weird! :(

    Alright, let's try this. If you have Windows Media Player, open that up. Click the drop down for Stream, then select Turn on media streaming.... From there, make sure you Turn on media sharing and then have
    "Local Network" showing up on the devices drop down. You should see your Xbox 360 set to "Allowed". Once you've done that, make sure that the
    Automatically allow devices to play my media... option is checked in Windows Media Player under the Stream option. That should allow streaming for other devices, but you can also make sure your HomeGroup settings are good by
    looking at the
    Media Streaming with Windows 7
    page (just the HomeGroup stuff, it's all the same thing in Windows 8; the rest I kinda go over here).

    Next, let's do a search on your PC for "View local services". This will give you the Services page. We're going to make sure we have a few things up and running. All of these you will right-click, hit Properties, and then
    make sure the Startup type is set to Automatic. Then be sure to Start them if they are not running, and hit OK.

    • Background Intelligent Transfer Service
    • Network List Service
    • Plug and Play
    • Quality Windows Audio Video Experience
    • Remote Desktop Services
    • SSDP Discovery
    • Windows Media Player Network Sharing
    Internet Connection Sharing should be set to Manual for the Startup type and stopped. If it isn't set up like this, it will cause issues with your
    Plug and Play service.

    After all that, give it a try! Crossing my fingers here for you, as this is a lot of work, but I am hoping something in there wasn't set right and reset itself for some odd reason. :3

    Kaspersky is gone (even though it was a few months out of date) now, and still nothing. I just disabled Panda, still nothing, and tried uninstalling it...Still nothing. :/

    I appreciate the help! I'm really hoping I can get to the bottom of this. I have no issues whatsoever, except when it comes to my PC and Xbox together. Like I said, my PC found my Xbox, but my Xbox won't find it. It'll find my mom's computer sometimes, but
    it won't connect to my Zune software. The only recent thing I've done is erase my profile (not the items) and redownload it due to an error signing in.
